Cash Cab

One of the pleasures (sarcasm dripping) I get to do being back in the US is see all the wonderful TV I have been missing while in Japan. There are all kinds of shows that I have never seen or heard of while in Japan, so these may be well known to you, but all completely new to me. Today I stumbled across a show called Cash Cab on the Discovery channel.

It’s a pretty simple trivia game when the contestant is an unsuspecting person who gets into a New York cab. The riders get asked trivia questions on the way to their destination. If they can answer them without getting three answers wrong by the time they reach their destination, they get to keep the money they win.
